1. Ensure that the game content does not include illegal or infringing material, such as violations of laws and regulations or infringement of others' intellectual property rights (e.g., plagiarism of artwork, code, etc.). 2. Consistency with Marketing Materials: The actual content of the game must align with the marketing materials, ensuring no discrepancies such as claiming an AI-generated art style or unique gameplay features in promotions that do not exist in the actual game.

Artificial intelligence has been used for some parts of the art.

Explanation about the game development process: In the early concept design and creative ideation stage of this game, we did use AI technology as an auxiliary tool to help us explore and validate various artistic styles and creative directions more quickly. These AI-generated reference materials provided us with initial inspiration. However, the core creative concepts, story writing, character design, and all artistic assets presented in the final game were personally conceived and carefully crafted by our creative team. Each game element underwent repeated human optimization and fine-tuning to ensure the best gaming experience. AI was only used as an auxiliary tool, and the final game content presented is the result of human creation. We have always adhered to human creation as the main driver, committed to bringing players a unique and meticulously polished gaming experience.
